OUR TEAM

IMMIGRANT WOMEN'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE

The Immigrant Women's Advisory Committee is the heartbeat of Learning Journeys, sharing experiences as immigrant women on their settlement path towards economic participation, offering insights into the most significant challenges, and applying their skills and strengths to dig into finding solutions. Some are mothers, daughters, wives, widows, nurses, teachers, dentists, film makers, volunteers, employees, business owners and students; while all are courageous, generous, honest, and hopeful. As a group, IWAC  meets monthly to check in and be supported on Lab work and other aspects of their lives, and individually they lead and play key roles in the Mentorship, Childcare and Let's Talk About groupwork.
